BODY REPAIRS
If you're involved in a collision, you want
your vehicle to be returned to its
pre-accident condition when repaired.
That's why it is important to make sure your
vehicle is repaired with only genuine Karma
Automotive parts.
Some repair shops and insurance
companies may suggest using non-original
equipment or salvaged parts to save
money. However, these parts may not
meet Karma's high standards for quality, fit
and corrosion resistance. In addition, non-
original equipment and salvaged parts
(and any damage or failures they may
cause) are not covered by any Karma
warranty.
The best way to ensure that your vehicle is
repaired with genuine Karma Automotive
parts is to take it to a Karma Service
Provider. Each Service Provider works with
selected collision repair centers that meet
Karma's strict requirements for training,
equipment, quality, and customer
satisfaction. These repair centers use
genuine Karma Automotive parts
exclusively in the repair of Karma vehicles.
IMPORTANT
Your Karma is an electric vehicle with a
range-extending gasoline engine.
WARNING: The Karma has both
high-voltage Direct Current (DC)
and Alternating Current (AC) systems as
well as a 12-volt system. Both the DC and
AC high voltage systems are very
dangerous and can cause personal
injury, severe burns, electric shock and
even fatal injury unless appropriate
precautions are taken.
WARNING: Always observe and
obey the instructions on labels
attached to components on the vehicle,
they are for your safety.
WARNING: Do not touch, attempt
to remove or replace any high
voltage parts, wiring (identified by the
orange outer sleeving) or connectors.
WARNING: If the vehicle is involved
in an accident, do not touch any
high voltage wiring, connectors or the
components connected to the wiring.
WARNING: If a vehicle fire occurs,
extinguish it with a Class D
powder-type fire extinguisher.
